In order to get a clear insight into the situation of e-commerce in Belgium, BIPT has entrusted KPMG with a study aiming at mapping out the possible obstacles to the growth of e-commerce as regards parcel delivery. On the basis of existing studies, a survey specifically created for the occasion, and a public consultation, KPMG has identified the following three obstacles to the growth of e-commerce: the lack of transparency as far as the delivery offer and customs charges are concerned; the Belgian legislation, which is insufficiently adapted to e-commerce, and a lack of responsiveness to consumer expectations. The study also offers 7 recommendations to boost e-commerce in Belgium.

BIPT has updated its maps of the fixed and mobile Internet access in Belgium and its telecommunications services quality barometer.The fixed coverage maps, which are published with a higher degree of accuracy, enable the consumers and public authorities to monitor the fixed network development in Belgium. The quality barometer is composed of several indicators relating to the operators’ operational efficiency. It should enable consumers to compare the operators’ performance and to encourage the latter to improve the quality of their services.
